‘Home’ follows Leah as she discovers who she is, on an international camp.

I honestly picked up ‘Home’ not knowing what to expect, but I was not disappointed. It is very rare I feel so attached to a book.

I would describe ‘Home’ as a novel fill to the brim with philosophical ideas and concepts; you definitely will find yourself go on a journey as you are reading it. I also feel the author very much leaves the book open to your own interpretations and each reader will have a journey with this book.

As someone who massively enjoys philosophical matters I therefore loved. this book, however it is certainly still accessible for those who don’t embrace philosophical concepts.

The main question of the book is ‘ Where is home?’, a question that is both complex and simple. I marvel at the way the author created a book along these lines. I am truly in awe of some of the discoveries made in the book.

Even though this book is a philosophical haven, it still felt like a novel. I still enjoyed the characters and the storyline. I can only describe this as two books in one.

I also enjoyed the diversity of characters in this book, the setting of an international holiday camp certainly enhanced this. The character development throughout the novel was fascinating, I definitely felt like I was almost growing up with Leah and even some of the other characters.

I hope that this book is a huge success; it is one of the best I have read.

Well how do you even sum up a review for one of the best books you have ever read? Well I would purely say that I would recommend it for novel loving and philosophical book lovers young and old.

5/5 stars

A massive thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for this review copy!

I went into this book not really knowing what it was about. It turns out that this book takes you on a journey to find yourself.

This is a good book to read when you are growing up. It makes you think about where you belong and what you want from life.

I loved going along on Leah’s journey. It was interesting to hear her ask those all important questions.

I do believe that everybody who reads this one will interpret it slightly differently. The true nature of a book that pulls at your heartstrings and makes you think about your own journey through life.

I really enjoyed the wider questions Home provides it’s readers. It did take me a while to get into this book but once the protagonist was at camp and started a journey of self discovery, I was intrigued. I think this is a great book to read to inspire young minds and to teach important lessons about acceptance, team-work and standing up for what you believe in. A great book for inquisitive readers!
